Science and Stuff with Emer Maguire on BBC Radio Ulster

“Science and Stuff with Emer Maguire” launched in October 2017 on BBC Radio Ulster. I’ve been having so much fun interviewing the most interesting people, learning about new science and tech, and communicating all of it to a lovely audience.

It’s difficult to pick my favourite clips from the show so far, but I’ve tried any way! Below are some of my top moments from “Science and Stuff with Emer Maguire”. Just click on whatever moments tickle your fancy and you’ll be brought over to BBC Radio Ulster to listen to a short clip:

Duet with Astronaut Chris Hadfield
As part of my BBC Radio Ulster show, “Science and Stuff with Emer Maguire”, I had the fantastic opportunity to meet and interview astronaut Chris Hadfield. Commander Hadfield went viral when he recorded himself performing Space Oddity in a music video on the International Space Station in 2013. During our interview I was lucky enough to get to perform an impromptu duet with him on David Bowie’s classic Space Oddity. The original video has 38 million views, and it was an honour to sing the song with him. You can watch the video of our duet HERE

Live Experiments with BBC Radio Ulster at W5
Educator Sean Greer from W5 in Belfast taught me some science through some cool live experiments. And we caught the whole thing on camera!
